Assignment:
1. From the General Social Survey, test whether the number of hours per day that people have to relax (HRSRELAX) varies by marital status (MARITAL). Hint: select ANALYZE, COMPARE MEANS, ONE-WAY ANOVA. Note also that the Tukey test is selected in the Post Hoc button and that means and standard deviations are selected in the Options button.
2. Based on the General Social Survey, test whether the number of self-reports of poor mental health during the past 30 days (MNTLHLTH) varies by marital status (MARITAL) using one-way ANOVA with the Tukey test and selecting means and standard deviations as an option.
3. Based on the General Social Survey, test whether the number of self-reports of poor mental health (MNTLHLTH) varies by age group (AGE recoded into a new variable AGEGRP) using one-way ANOVA with the Tukey test and selecting means and standard deviations as an option. Before doing your analysis, recode age into a new variable (AGEGRP) using the following groups: 18 to 29; 30 to 44; 45 to 65; 65 or more.
4. Analyze two variables of your choice from the General Social Survey using one-way ANOVA. Remember the dependent variable needs to be an interval/ratio level variable and the independent variable needs to have three or more categories.
